    What is the loudest/deep sound exhaust for an A3 8V 2.0t?

    I'm trying to figure out what catback I should buy and I want it to be loud/deep. I like how the Remus sound but they don't have it for the sedan A3 8v 2.0t.

    I believe too you want to look for a deep sounding resonator that cancels out any of the higher pitches, and remove the mufflers if you want to go loud. Believe it's either a 18-22".

    Please keep in mind it is still an Audi, not a Honda, keep some type of muffler on it

    down pipe and pretty much any aftermarket exhaust will meet your criteria.

    If you want to save some money, just muffler delete would be good

    Save your money and buy the RS3 when it comes out in August 2017. All the exhausts for the A3/S3 sound horrible in my opinion.

    Do you want this to be super loud or a nice bump over stock? Your initial post and second response are a bit contradicting or just not very clear to me. I would love to help you find the exhaust that suits your needs. Feel free to PM me :)

    Friere, if you have any questions on our A3 catback, let us know! It may be a good option for you if you are looking for a nice, deep exhaust tone.

    Would the S3 catback fit on the A3 sline if I change the rear valence? Or is it different fitment?

    Those two systems are not cross-compatible; the fitment will be different.

    yes it will work if you use the S3 valance. You will either have to use your own custom valve actuator or bypass where the valve would go. I must also say... IT SOUNDS GOOD!

    Any post that begins with, "What is the loudest/deep sound..." and does not involve a high compression V-8 is disappointing. My fear is it is just going to sound like a riced out Honda Civic with a fart can IMHO. Hopefully the OP rethinks his needs for a street car so it is just a bit louder/deeper than stock and not irritating to everyone else who happens to share the road with him or live near by. Every time one of those Honda Civics goes by me on the street or freeway spinning 7K RPM, blaring away, doing 70 MPH, my wife and I just laugh. Please don't let your Audi suffer that fate.

    I am actually running the milltek s3 exhaust and loving it (I have an A3 non-s-line). Planning on doing a down pipe soon, but for now its a nice deep sound. I took a video a couple days ago, can try and get it up tonight.
